The Congregational Survey is the first of the three data sources
which drive ReVision. This survey seeks to gain strategic information about the persons
who participate at any level in the life of your church. It is completely anonymous. The
only person who should see a survey other than the respondent is a Percept data entry
person.

Before you make photocopies of the
Congregational Survey be sure to type in your program
names in Section 6.

There are four decisions to make before you do anything else with
the survey.

First, determine when you intend to administer the survey.

Second, determine how you intend to administer the survey.

Third, type in the list of programs and ministries currently
offered by your church in the table on page 5 of the survey. MAKE SURE YOU COMPLETE THIS
STEP BEFORE YOU MAKE COPIES (See instructions below.)

Fourth, determine if you intend to use the optional last page
(page 6) of the survey on Church leadership.

The table on the top half of page 5 of the survey provides an
opportunity to customize the survey for your own church. You are given 20 spaces. You do
not have to use all 20. HOWEVER, YOU MUST NOT USE MORE THAN 20 nor can you depart in any
fashion from the basic structure of the table. If you do, anything listed after 20 will be
ignored!

We recommend you simply list the programs you offer by the names
they are known. DO NOT MAKE STATEMENTS. An example follows.

1. Sunday Morning Worship

2. High School Youth Program

3. Adult Choir

4. Food Pantry

etc....

NOTE: If you don't need all 20 lines and are concerned
about the appearance of the survey, use "white out" correction fluid or a piece
of white paper to white out the unused portion of page 5 before you make copies of the
survey.

Remember the goal of taking a survey. You want the respondents to
represent the broad spectrum of adults in your congregation. For most churches, there is
only one setting where you have a captive audience that best represents at a moment in
time the full range of your church; Sunday morning worship. (If have alternative services,
in those as well.)

Plan to administer the survey on a regular Sunday
morning. It should take about 15 minutes to complete.

Make enough copies of the survey to cover every adult 15 years of
age and older for a typical worship service (or services). Experience suggests the
following guidelines be followed.

Plan on a 15 minute slot at the end of the service.

Make sure surveys are distributed to everyone at the time you
intend to administer it. DO NOT PASS THEM OUT AHEAD OF TIME. You do not want the survey to
distract from the rest of the service, nor do you want people to set them aside.

Be sure to have pencils for everyone available.

Have enough ushers to pass out surveys and pencils.

Provide a brief introduction and instructions.

Insist they complete the survey while seated. Do not let them
take the surveys home,
or they will most likely never be returned.

The survey includes an optional page which seeks to discover the
congregation's leadership values, especially relative to pastors. This page is optional.
ITS PROCESSING IS NOT COVERED IN THE BASE PROGRAM PRICE. Its purpose is to support
congregations who are conducting the ReVision program in part as a preliminary study to
calling a new pastor.

If this is your congregations need, then you may choose to
use this page. However, if you do, please note the additional charge on the program order
form.

No. There is no way for Percept to know how many surveys will be
completed. Therefore, a per survey data entry fee of $.95 per survey completed must be
added to the base fee. Please see the Church Profile order form which seeks general church
information for the place to calculate this fee. You will need to know exactly how many
completed surveys you are sending to Percept for processing in order to complete the data
entry calculation.
